Odlum Brown VanOpen's proposal to come to Burnaby would require a “significant city undertaking,” according to staff.
Burnaby city staff have recommended rejecting a proposal to host a professional tennis tournament this summer.
The tournament’s usual space, the Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver, is undergoing major renovations for the next two to three years. The tournament would host 13,000 spectators and 130 athletes from 35 countries, as well as 70 offices, a ball crew of 120 and about 130 volunteers. But staff say hosting the event would require a “significant city undertaking,” with a very tight time constraint, according to a report going to council this Monday.
